The Exclude URLs list lets you define a set of pages which will never be compressed. The Exclude URLs page has two main areas: At the top of the page there is a form for you to enter new exclusions and below this is a list of all existing exclusions for this feature. To enter an exclusions you will need to fill the following fields:
Request |
This is the page you want to exclude. Firstly select if you are creating an "Exact Match" or "Regular Expression". Next enter the location of your page. By default the request will be an exact match and should look something like "/batchStats.cfm" or "/batch/dailyStats.cfm" (beginning with a '/' and without parameters.) A good use of Regular Expressions here would be to restrict everything within a given folder. For examples of Regular Expressions, please see Regular Expressions and Restrictions. |
Hostname |
By default, FusionReactor will ignore the hostname and simply match based on the web path of a given request, but you can also opt to include it. If you enable Hostname checking then the request field should also include a hostname and look something like "productionMachine/batchStats.cfm". You should NOT include HTTP or HTTPS at the start of this string. |
Parameters |
By default, FusionReactor will ignore any parameters passed to a page, however, as with the hostname, you can also opt to include them in your restriction. With parameter checking enabled, the request field should include the necessary parameters. For example "/batchStats.cfm?period=YEAR". Once again, Regular Expressions can be useful here when specifying multiple possible parameter values, or even specifying parameters where the order isn't fixed. |
Once you submit the form the page will be refreshed and your new exclusion will be listed at the bottom of the page.
Below the Add Exclusion form you will see a list of all existing exclusions. Each exclusion has two icons next to it:
Modify Exclusion |
Clicking on this icon will take you to the Modify Exclusion page. From this page you can change any of the information which is listed above. |
Delete Exclusion |
Clicking on this icon will prompt you if you are sure you want to delete this exclusion . If you OK the dialog then the exclusion will be removed from the Existing Exclusion list and the page will be refreshed. |
